Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. This is "CORINNE OU L'ITALIE" By MADAME DE STAËL. The binding is quarter-bound red leather and cloth-covered board; it is a mid-nineteenth century American edition in the original French. This novel was written by of the most influential and widely read French women authors. Anne Louise Germaine de Staël-Holstein (née Necker) (1766 - 1817) was more commonly known to the world as Madame de Staël. She was a French-speaking Swiss author who chose to live in Paris, when she was not traveling. Madame de Staël greatly influenced the literary tastes of her time and continued to be read with regularity well into the nineteenth century. Her works - letters and novels were often used in school curricula both in Europe and in the United States ************************************************ "Corinne" was widely read, and often reprinted. This edition, published in New York by Leavitt and Allen, is not dated but may be assigned a narrow range of possible dates. Leavitt took on John K. Allen as a partner in 1852; in 1863, due to complications stemming in part from the Civil War, the firm was disposed of to meet the demands of creditors. ************************************************ The book is signed and inscribed on the front fly-leaf, 'Aurelia G. Doud, White Seminary, Clinton, Sept. '20th'. Miss Doud did not give the year, but the White Seminary, which she identifies in her inscription was built and established in 1851; White Seminary was the female arm of the Clinton Liberal Institute (founded in 1831 in Clinton, New York). The Clinton Liberal Institute was moved from Clinton to Fort Plain in 1878, and the premises of White Seminary closed. Thus this edition was issued between 1852 and 1863 (date range also established from the book's physical make-up). ************************************************ In the nineteenth century, Clinton, N.Y. was known as Schooltown, for the many private schools, academies, seminaries (including Hamilton College) located in the village. Grover Cleveland, future President of the United States, attended Clinton Grammar School. Leland Stanford, famous for his connection with the transcontinental railroad, and future founder of Stanford University, attended the Clinton Liberal Institute. Another famous scholar of the Institute was Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross. She, of course, attended the female arm of the school, White Seminary, which elegant pillared structure still stands in Clinton, albeit, somewhat reduced in size. It is possible that Aurelia G. Doud, the original owner of this book, was a one-time classmate of Clara Barton, and, it may be conjectured, Aurelia may even have known her. In all events this book is a nice relic from the past, throwing a small bit of light on the curricula of the school; - and though Aurelia has seemingly passed from memory - the book is also a touchstone of sorts to the past history of Clinton - "Schooltown." ************************************************ TITLE : Corinne ou L'Italie / AUTHOR : Baronne Anne Louise Germaine de Staël-Holstein (née Necker) ( 1766 - 1817 ) / DATE : N.D.

Ottimi esemplari a grandi margini, in barbe ai tagli esterno e inferiore (dorsi leggermente vissuti ma sostanzialmente integri; minime mancanze marginali ad alcune carte, come usuale; leggere bruniture alle carte, leggera umidità alle carte). L opera più nota di Madame de Stael, che le costò l esilio in Svizzera per le sue posizioni filo-tedesche (quando non anti-francesi). L autrice fu apertamente attaccata dalla critica per le sue posizioni politiche, ma la portata rivoluzionaria dell opera e la sua prospettiva originale sono evidenti fin dalla prima frase dell introduzione: «Je me suis proposé d examiner quelle est l influence de la religion, des m urs et des lois sur la littérature, et quelle est l influence de la littérature sur la religion, les m urs et les lois»: «For the first time, literature was caught in a dialectics with society and was said to be, in some sort of Gramscian way, not only a product (representation) but also a producer (creation) of social institutions. Just as revolutionary was Stags message: concluding De la litterature with a peculiar praise both of medieval Christianity and the Enlightenment culture of the ancien regime, Madame de Stael depicted revolutionary France as a moment of corruption in European history» (Dainotto, «Europe (in Theory)», Durham and London, Duke university press, 2007, pagine 143 - 144).
